I have literally worn the same pair of shorts three days this week. It's partially because I have wanted a pair of shorts like this for a very long time, and now I finally have them! Mostly, it has just been a chaotic work week. When I managed to get out of the house, I couldn't even find it in me to wear a different outfit, let alone document them on the appropriate day. Therefore, I recreated each look for you - sloppy hair and all.

Day One: Chelsea Garage Flea Market and brunch at Jane with Samara, Shae and her awesome mom. If you haven't seen Shae's blog, Everything Style, add it to your list right.now. She is not only a beauty with great style, but also a really great photographer and a wonderful gal. After meeting her mom, I see where she gets it from. She reminded me of my mom in some ways; it made me homesick!

Day Two: Frumpy frumpy, but oh-so-comfy. I wore this to work in all day, and then went to dinner with Bops. Afterward, we met up with Samara and went to our friend Peter's apartment. There's another blog to check out - he will quickly become your favorite. Apparently half of my friends are bloggers. I really do have a life off of the internet...it just involves talking about the internet with other people whose lives are displayed on the internet. Did I mention that Bobby started (and regularly updates) a blog, This Fellow?

Day Three: Oh my gosh, forgive Miku's awkward growing out phase of her summer shave. She is so embarrassed! She just got groomed today and is looking less disheveled. I didn't even do anything noteworthy in this outfit. I think I got all dressed up just to work all day...and then I walked to the store. It was cold, so I put on some tights. Yeah, I wore those shoes to the store. I've even been wearing them around the house. They need to be broken in!

Natalya: Thank you!Charmalade: Thanks! The lipstick is my all time favorite - Julie Hewett's Cheekie cheek and lip shine in Bette. It's actually in a pot, so I use either my finger or a lip brush. It stays on really well and is the perfect color. It has lasted me forever! I got it last September, wear it almost every day and still have half the container left.

I love the three different ways you wore those shorts....each look is so different and distinct. I have to say my favorite pieces are the gold belt from Hourglass Consignment and the thrifted slouchy sweater - the color is adorable and the weaved ribbons are perfection!

I'm actually surprised to find that I really love those shorts! I've seen them before but having them 'styled' really puts them into perspective. No need to apologize, you looked great in each of the looks!

I like all 3 outfits, and the second one is probably my favorite. I love seeing posts that include multiple outfits with the same piece of clothing, because it proves how versatile that piece really is.
